HTML, an abbreviation for HyperText Markup Language, is the primary markup language for World Wide Web pages. It provides a medium to describe the structure of different text-based information within a document by translating certain text as links, headings, paragraphs, lists, etc... to supplement that text with embedded images, interactive forms, and various other objects.
HTML is written in the form of tags, surrounded by angle brackets. HTML can also describe, to some extent, the appearance and semantics of a document, and can include embedded scripting language code (such as JavaScript) which will affect the behavior of Web browsers and other HTML processors.
